I always thought forums were for other
people. They were for people worse off
than me. They were for people who had no
one to talk to. Well today this forum has
become part of my life. Thank you all for
listening. I was diagnosed bp ll two
years ago, but like everyone has suffered
for years. Right now I have been on a
leave from work since april. I am on
lamictal, risperdal and ativan. I was on
zoloft, but that just made me crazy. My
lamictal is at 250 mg and although i've
been on that dosage for several weeks, I
am still teary eyed, easy frustrated. I
am afraid to tell my doctor as he has
mentioned starting me on a medication that
is used to treat parkinson's disease.
Another friend of mine's doctor took her
off it as he said it could cause
parkinsons. I fear for the side effects
of the drugs. Does anyone have any
information about this drug. I'm sorry I
don't know the name of it so I hope
someone recognizes the description. Xo

Just wanted to say welcome to the forum.
I know it ia nice to have a place to go
where others experience the same things as
yourself.
I don't recognize the description of the
medication, howerever, I also take
lamictal and it can take longer to really
work.
